This book provides an introduction to the complex system functions,
variability and human interference in ecosystem between the
continent and the ocean. It focuses on circulation, transport and
mixing of estuarine and coastal water masses, which is ultimately
related to an understanding of the hydrographic and hydrodynamic
characteristics (salinity, temperature, density and circulation),
mixing processes (advection and diffusion), transport timescales
such as the residence time and the exposure time. In the area of
physical oceanography, experiments using these water bodies as a
natural laboratory and interpreting their circulation and mixing
processes using theoretical and semi-theoretical knowledge are of
fundamental importance. Small-scale physical models may also be
used together with analytical and numerical models. The book
highlights the fact that research and theory are interactive, and
the results provide the fundamentals for the development of the
estuarine research.
